Rorschach: I heard a joke once: Man goes to doctor. Says he's depressed. Says life is harsh and cruel. Says he feels all alone in a threatening world. Doctor says, "Treatment is simple. The great clown Pagliacci is in town tonight. Go see him. That should pick you up." Man bursts into tears. Says, "But doctor... I am Pagliacci." Good joke. Everybody laugh. Roll on snare drum.

AWESOME. One of the better pictures of Rorschach I've found. (I'm a junkie, I've been flipping through Rorschach stuff for hours now.) When I first saw it, I thought he was flipping the bird. XD

Yeah, it pissed me off when he died. His death was actually a lot better in the movie because Nite Owl came running out going, "NOOOO!" Which I would've done had he not. In the comics, he didn't do that because he was too busy doing "things" with Silk Spectre... AGAIN! God, I love Rorschach. Went back to see it a second time just to hear that amazing voice.

I practically was on the verge of exploding in my pants watching this film. Some nuff nuff kid decided to try and argue with me, telling me that it was a bad film because he was expecting something like spiderman...what a cock

I think he was what's known as a "popular" kid. Lives his life expecting everything to be exactly the same every day, and when something like the watchmen comes along and questions his reality, he must get all frustrated because someone made him think about his existence.

I don't really consider the movie a direct link up to the comics as being "official", like with any movie re-make... (X-Men for example where they killed off like EVERYBODY) always some differences. So Rorschach is not dead in my book, NOPE... just in this movie version.

But you know that they can't entirely say that it's over, can they? ANY other sequel after that would not include him anymore (other than pre-qual crap)and that's just... crappy-er. They "killed" the best thing in it. If you ask me, they shot themselves in the foot on that one.

Well, the comics are over. Only twelve issues were intended to be released, and the only other movie they're releasing is a cartoon thing. There was a comic inside of a comic in the original. Plus, they're trying not to franchise Watchmen by making a series in honor of writer Alan Moore. And yeah, he was the best thing, but sad as it is, people buy into something more when their favorite character dies. They get all mad and then they have to see the rest. So, yeah, it made everyone mad, but it kind of had to happen. Rest in Peace, Rorschach.

i wouldn't know much about it coz ive never read the book (i did hav it, but couldn't be bothered reading it), now that u've mentioned it makes me feel alot better thank you ..tho u gotta say the movie did portray the book quiet well, it was 'to me' like reading the actual watchmen comic book but without the whole speech bubbles..
